@xosparkage, one of the original youtube beauty guru's posted a vid on a beauty blender dupe, giving them a rather bad review. They responded,

“Hi @xosparkage! We just saw your video and would love to give you a demo on how to properly use the blender. The beauty editors for Cosmo, BuzzFeed, Hello Giggles, and Elle Mag all love our blender (and have written unpaid reviews raving about us after properly using it correctly). It is important that the blender is not used the way you did because you can confuse a lot of customers who might believe you are also a beauty expert. Second, you wouldn't claim a bike doesn't work because you fell on the first try! This is a new patent pending innovation that requires some practice. We have never and would never claim to be the replacement for a Beauty Blender because it's made out of foam. Angie, the founder makes herself available via DM to answer questions and do personal video demos for people like you who may experience a hard time.”

- Tracy says she doesn't have faith in Hollywood but loves Lena because Lena speaks her mind and tells the truth, and no one tells the truth these days

- Lena had big health issues and was transparent about them, but our ~celebrity culture~ was only interested in what diet she was doing. She started her fitness journey after learning that working out helps her manage her anxiety

- Tracy thinks Lena is the most important influencer of our time, and says she didn't come to her to make her body look different but to make herself feel better

- Says people should come to her thinking their health comes first instead of being motivated by vanity

He was asked Harry about sexuality in pop and Miley Cyrus coming out as pansexual.

He said “Being in a creative field, it’s important to be ­progressive. People doing stuff like that is great.“It’s weird for me — everyone should just be who they want to be. It’s tough to justify somebody having to answer to someone else about stuff like that.”

When asked if he had personally labelled his sexuality he said no; “I’ve never felt the need to really. No.”

When asked to elaborate he made it clear he didn't feel he had to explain himself “I don’t feel like it’s something I’ve ever felt like I have to explain about myself.”

He refused to talk about any of his famous exes (taylor swift, kendall jenner, caroline flack) or talk about his current gf, food blogger Tess Ward, who was spotted at his show Saturday night. And the former 1D frontman has denied being bisexual.

sourceGiven hes denied being bisexual does he mean by he doesn't feel the need to explain his sexuality that it's self evident or what? Confusing but he's made it clear it's not anyone's business

On not having any sons:"I am so thankful that I did not have boys... All my bandmates have boys, too much testosterone."

On wanting his daughters to be gay:"I hope that both of my daughters are gay because that takes all penis out of my life — I do not want to deal with boys ever. But if I do have to, they’re going to have to go through quite a lot of trials to go through me because my daughters are my life."

Due to the allegations of abuse against PWR BTTM's Ben Hopkins, Polyvinyl has dropped the band from their label and is no longer selling the band's music. Father/Daughter Records will no longer be selling PWR BTTM's 2015 debut Ugly Cherries or any other merchandise. Both records have pledged donations to RAINN and NCAVP

Throughout our 20 years, Polyvinyl has purposefully operated on the core principle that everyone deserves to be treated with fairness and respect. There is absolutely no place in the world for hate, violence, abuse, discrimination or predatory behavior of any kind.

In keeping with this philosophy, we want to let everyone know that we are ceasing to sell and distribute PWR BTTM's music. If you have ordered PWR BTTM products from Polyvinyl and would like to receive a full refund for your purchase, please contact mailorder@polyvinylrecords.com. We ask for your patience as we work to quickly process all requests.

We will be making donations to the following incredibly important organizations: RAINN (rainn.org) to support its efforts against sexual violence, and AVP (avp.org) to aid its programs against LGBTQ violence.

Our hearts go out to all victims of discrimination and all survivors of sexual violence.

waiting for google to tell me PWR BTTM was a former band tbh. I love how the label/bands/etc aren't taking their side. Also, if you have tickets to any of their upcoming shows, they may be cancelled. I heard some venues were issuing refunds too, so get that $$ and support better music!

It was difficult to schedule a time for this interview because Rita's schedule was full of many international commitments.

Her album isn't finished yet but she's very excited to get the songs that are ready out into the world.

Rita's song 'Girls' with Charli and MØ was going to be the first single but it was pushed back to make room for the song Ed Sheeran wrote.

She discussed singing at Mother Teresa's canonization:"We’re from the same country"

She had to be careful when picking an outfit to wear for her performance for the Pope:"Obviously I couldn’t wear my good old Rita-nearly-naked clothes,” “A black veil and a black dress. I don’t want to comment too much, ’cos I do want to go to heaven.”SOURCE
